Can someone please send me a copy of your arin request for additional IP space? We have filled our initial ISP allocation, and we want to follow the proper procedure for the least delay. I figure if I see someone's request that has successfully requested more space, then I will have the least delays in the allocation process. Also, no, I don't want to buy your /16, go away. :) TIA. Steve Rude
I don't have one I can show you, but a couple words: The first one is definitely the hardest justification Make sure you've already got your POCs for your ORG-ID, and you use those for the NET-ISP (if you don't there is another template you must fill out: ORG-detail) If you aren't listing a bunch of SWIPs or a ton of URLs you host, you had better give a good description of your business model--and be prepared to answer questions (each with a 2-3 day turn around). If you're getting your first /20 portable, you must state that will begin migrating your existing /21 (s) back to the ISP in a "timely" manner. If you really get stuck, or you don't fully understand their reply questions, give them a call; they're tough on granting, but they are there to help. gl, jeff Steve Rude(steve@skyriver.net)@03/05/09 12:26:

Other things: You have undoubtedly SWIPed all of your space, or can account for it. If not, do it now. Also, be prepared for ARIN to ask you for the justification for some of that SWIPed space. They are usually pretty reasonable if you have really used a /21 and need more space. If this is a pie in the sky or "design" proposal, be prepared to produce some legal documentation, not just a visio or two. ARIN is quite speedy, if you have done your homework. Also, do not be afraid to call. It won't hurt your chances, and they are quite open on the phone. - Dan On Fri, 9 May 2003, Jeff Nelson wrote:

Since these things are typically full of private or at least semi-private info, I'll be surprised if anyone sends you a real one. Having gone through it several times though, I'll say all you need is to fill out http://www.arin.net/library/templates/net-isp.txt and add in some additional info/detail they want but don't ask for in the template. See http://www.arin.net/policy/ipv4.html, the part under ISP Additional Requests. i.e. for non-swip'd space, they want details...not just a count of "we're using x hundred IPs for web sites, X thousand for dial-up ports, etc.", but "we're using x hundred IPs for the following web sites [list of urls/domains], Y hundred IPs for Y hundred dial-up ports in city A, ..." For good measure, any IP block (swip'd or not) >=/24, give them details as to what it's being used for, how many IPs are currently in use, etc. If you don't follow these two pieces of advice, I'll bet someone lunch that they'll reply to your template asking for more info (which will slow the process). Also, though you probably took way longer than 3 months to use up your initial allocation, don't bother asking for more than you reasonably think you'll use in 3 months unless that would be smaller than /20 (I think that's the minimun block size ARIN will give you). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Jon Lewis *jlewis@lewis.org*| I route System Administrator | therefore you are Atlantic Net | _________ http://www.lewis.org/~jlewis/pgp for PGP public key_________
